Why do I need a home inspection?
An inspection gives you an unbiased look at the home's condition before you commit. It can uncover safety concerns, costly repairs, or simply help you plan for future maintenance.
How long does an inspection take?
Most inspections take 2 to 4 hours, depending on the home's size, age, and condition.
Should I be there for the inspection?
You're welcome to attend. We especially recommend joining us at the end, when we walk you through what we found and answer your questions.
When will I get my report?
Your digital report arrives by 9 am the following day, with photos and clear explanations unless otherwise communicated.
How much does an inspection cost?
Pricing depends on the home's size, age, and the services you choose. Call or send us a message and we'll put together a quote for your home.
What if the inspection finds problems?
Every home has something. We'll help you understand which findings are significant and which are routine, so you and your realtor can decide next steps.
Can a house fail an inspection?
No. An inspection isn't pass or fail. It's an honest picture of the home's current condition.
Do you inspect new construction?
Yes. New homes can still have issues, and an independent inspection is a smart step before closing.
What areas do you serve?
We're based in Kearney and serve homeowners and realtors across central Nebraska.
